Race Evaluation
2006 Sprint Series Finals: Sprint #2 - short
dness
| 1. | Running with Karl Ahlswede, Charlie DeWeese, and Matthew Robbins. I led out around R side of building to trail. | ||||||
| 2. | Had a hard time finding the right bearing leaving #1, but I think I made it first to #2. | ||||||
| 3. | Just ran W, sensing Karl somewhere in the vicinity | ||||||
| 4. | fairly straight | ||||||
| 5. | took the trail on the E side of the field out, then a beeline. Karl punched in right after me. | ||||||
| 6. | Not a good leg -- I retraced my steps a little to avoid the marsh, then went too far N and ran the N side of the hill. Hesitant, but ended up spiking the control. The dark green was open forest it seems. Lost time here. | ||||||
| 7. | |||||||
| 8. | Followed contour to trail, ran it almost to junction, then cut south, hitting the road at the west side of the little clearing, bouncing back into the woods. | ||||||
| 9. | Another bobble -- went close to straight north, finding the rocky little cliff just N of the trail, which was mapped as stony ground. For some reason this confused me more than it should and I panicked a little. Finally I breathed & figured it out. | ||||||
| 10. | Followed the trail a little, but then took a straight line, crossing the rocks | ||||||
| 11. | Straight | ||||||
| 12. | This was confusing. I headed NE to pick up the trail, but I guess I found an unmarked one that fed me back to the road. I didn't figure out where I was until I was S of the control. Time lost here -- met j-j at the control | ||||||
| 13. | Followed j-j to water -- I followed water, I guess he found the trail that led direct to the control. | ||||||
| 14. | E to field of course. | ||||||
| F. | For me, a pretty good run. Nice course. |
